My least favourite type of internet person is the person who claims fanfic is over thousands of years old or whatever. I understand we like to joke but fanfiction is fundamentally tied to fandom culture and is a very specific way of engaging with media. Religious texts based off other religious texts is not fanfiction and it is worrying the only way you can justify your interest is by comparing the two. I promise you you don't have to reinvent the wheel to write fanfic you can just do that but we don't have to say "Shakespeare wrote fanfiction about Richard III", there was not a Richard III fandom in 1592, that was called the divine right of kings.

Hello, Pokemon Colosseum Fandom. (waves to the 5 of you)

I'm back.

getting severely clear just how many people have never heard someone tell a trans man "honey, gay men call each other 'sis' and 'queen' all the time"

(or maybe never listened when a trans guy opened up about it)

ok one last cringetober prompt before i drop off the face of the earth again <3 day 24 is my little pony!! please enjoy this drawing of the og dyke horses

I think ppl who defend or handwave all of Astarion's evil cunt moments as just being cuz he's a Helpless Victim with Trauma are kidding themselves and not giving him enough credit. He's also a bitchy mean-spirited sicko who lives for chaos and drama entirely of his own volition

(Disclaimer: I like him a lot he's a fun well written character please do not kill me)

there are two types of elden ring fan:

the normal one

and then this guy

everytime someone talks abt misogyny in fandom and how no one can talk about female characters, there's inevitably some person that goes "yeah every single female character to ever exist are all written terribly and thats why no one focuses on them 💔 such a shame 💔" then you go on their account and their favorite character is a male bg character with 3 speaking lines and they've made like 7 AUs so that man can be shipped with himself

POV you just turned down a possible meeting with the editor of new york magazine in what could have been a career changing night to race home to say birthday to your boyfriend just to see him sitting on the couch pouting like a four year old before not even saying two complete sentences to you and sulking off to bed

"History won't care about your pronouns" my ass

coworker: wait you guys know about the Public Universal Friend, right? they were such a nonbinary icon, truly

me: oh yeah! they- shit, I mean the Friend-

coworker 2: wait what?

me: oh, the Friend didn't like any pronouns at all

coworker 1: right! thanks for reminding me! sorry about that; I forgot

me: no, it's easy to forget when talking about the Friend

coworker 2: where did the Friend start the Friend's church again?

Only Friends Episode 1 | Ray's Apology

Why does this feel like foreshadowing? WHY? WHY?! (I'm screaming into the abyss).

I’m sorry but, to say that BOTW/TOTK Zelink is “the least Zelink” out of all of them, just because they’re not as in your face as they were in Skyward Sword or even Spirit Tracks, doesn’t mean it’s not there. To me, they’re the most nuanced and have the most interesting dynamic out of all of them. I like the subtlety and think it works better than something like Skyward Sword.

But that’s just me, I guess.

"the problem is men, not trans women!"

ok but what is a man? what is it about this group of people that makes them a problem? is it the identity of 'man' that's the problem? and if all men stopped identifying as men would the problem go away?
